Pool Progress

Renovations to the Aquatic Center are progressing as opening day nears. Mechanical room electrical, plumbing and pool plumbingcontinuethisweek.The plumber will be setting bathroom fixtures. The concrete work is set to be finished, with grouting to follow.

The pool has been closed since November 2019, when potentially catastrophic defects were uncovered in the 1960s-era facility. The project coincided with the coronavirus epidemic, which delayed construction, parts procurement and other facets of the job.

Once completed, the facility will have a pool with five swimming lanes, a 30-by-30-foot activity area with a volleyball net, a 9-by-25-foot spa, new locker rooms and a spacious lounge area.
